Sanctuary?

I’ve been seeing this sidewalk spray-paint stencil graffito appearing with increasingly regularity in various parts of my (and perhaps your) fair city.  It seems that as the economic news/reality gets worse, I encounter more of these public statements of discontent.

I know that things are bad everywhere, but it seems that San Francisco in particular is particularly volatile whenever the economy swings too far to either of the boom/bust extremes.  The rumblings of class war back in the go-go 90’s was an example of how things get when it swings the other way.

And if you’re not familiar with the lingo, Sanctuary City is a term for a city (like SF) that by way of policy does not aid enforcement of Federal immigration laws.  A somewhat controversial status.  I think that this is an interesting re-purposing of the term.

We’ll see how things go with this.  I really hope that this is not a return of that rage from a decade ago.

I saw this in my neighborhood. Please vote.
